28-year-old actress Sarah Hyland gave a candid video interview to Self magazine, in which she admitted for the first time that she had already had her second kidney transplant. Recall that the star of the series "American Family" was diagnosed with kidney dysplasia and she underwent the first transplant seven years ago. Then her father was the donor.
In an interview, Sarah spoke in detail about the operation, as well as the developed endometriosis. It turned out that two years ago her body began to reject the transplanted organ and the kidney had to be removed in May last year, as it became known only now. At the same time, the doctors found in Her Highland also a hernia. Events had a great influence on the psyche of Sarah, writes Gossip.
When your relative sacrifices himself and gives you a second chance, but it all ends in failure, you think it's your fault. Although it is not, ”Highland admitted, adding that she felt extremely depressed at that time and even thought about suicide.
All my life I felt like a burden, someone who always had to be cared for, whom I should look after, because I always had health problems. And this feeling makes you absolutely helpless. This is very hard, ”Sarah said frankly.
From February to October last year, the actress underwent a dialysis procedure, and in September 2017 underwent a second kidney transplant - this time her younger brother was the donor.
But this was not the end of the hospital hours in her life - this spring, she still lay on the operating table twice because of endometriosis and hernia.
Sarah rarely speaks so explicitly about her state of health. So, a year ago, a girl was provoked to be frank by aggressive comments on her photo: the actress was accused of promoting anorexia. Sarah had to go, that her thinness is associated with loss of muscle mass due to frequent hospitalizations and bed rest. This time in front of the camera, the actress even showed all the scars.
Highland assured her fans that, despite the difficulties, her state of health is now stable. In just a year and a half, Sarah had six operations.
